How can I sell my gown through REVIVE?
Paperswan Bride/REVIVE is a consignment programme, which means that we will sell your gown on your behalf to a new bride by showcasing it in our boutique and on our website.
Please note, we only accept gowns that are either unworn/new or have been dry cleaned.
We’ve made the process of selling your gown through us hassle-free.
Our experienced team will handle all aspects of the consignment process, from evaluating your gown to marketing.
Though our racks are full at the moment, we’d love to help find the perfect new home for your gown. Join our waitlist by emailing revive@paperswanbride.co.nz and we’ll reach out as soon as space becomes available.
Who sets the price for my wedding GOWN?
What happens after I submit an enquiry?
We will work with you to determine the appropriate selling price that reflects the gown’s condition, age and market demand.
Once a price has been agreed by both parties, we will provide you with a consignment agreement outlining the terms and conditions of the consignment.
Our team will be in touch with more information about the next steps.
If you don’t hear back from us within 3 days, please check your spam folder or email revive@paperswanbride.co.nz directly.
DO I NEED TO PROVIDE PHOTOS OF MY GOWN?
Is there a fee for listing with you?
In addition to the consignment fee, there is a $75 admin fee when the gown is listed with us, which is refunded to you when the gown sells.
Yes. Having high quality photos that showcase the gown is important for us to be able to promote the gown on our website social media channels.
